Saltwater State Park

The parks website says $10 but there are quite a few state parks here worth seeing so the $30 annual pass is a great investment.

Last time I was there it was a quarter for 3 minutes I think and I believe you have to be a camper

Because some people like planes?

Yes a new playground

You cannot harvest shellfish from Saltwater. They have biotoxic warning signs posted.

Yes. When you drive into the main parking area for the park, the water is on the right and the camping area is on the left. The camping area is not on the beach but in the forest if you turn left when you enter the parking lot. It's a 5 min walk from the beach.

I don't swim but its very nice to walk down near it

I don't believe so. It is a day park with beach front and trails.

Good point. I don't know about camping but access is $10

Yes

It's not open. If you want a place that is close but still nice I would try Dash Point State Park. I'm not sure of the cost.

The gates are open at 8 am, and close at dusk. You should be able to get out anytime if you are camping there. Keep in mind this park closes up the camping area after Labor day now.

A national park pass will not work for this Washington State park

Yes their is an outdoor shower!!

I would check out the Washington State parks and recreation for that information.

Yes, just not in the area where the reef is where people scuba dive. From the website, "A recreational license is required for fishing and shellfish harvesting at Washington state parks. For regulations, fishing season information, or to purchase a recreational license, visit the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife website."

Not that you would be able to get to or are safe to eat

They do close the gates at dusk, not usually the time listed. I think they try to make sure people are out first though. So make sure you're out before it's dark.

Not that I have seen

Yes they have designated pits , but if I were you I'd call to WA State Parks HQ to verify locations that allow that and info on burn bans.

I don't believe there's any state parks in the area that allow fireworks. There is a fireworks event going on in city of SeaTac at the Angle lake Park. That's actually just one town over from Des Moines less than 10 minute drive from that area.

People, boats, kayaks, and wake boards are fine to be in the water. The Sound is part of the Pacific, so it is ocean all ocean water.

No pass to walk into park.

https://washington.goingtocamp.com/ You can make reservations and check availability here, hope this helps.

Of course. You just need a fishing license.

They do. It's open seasonally, so you need to check if there are spots available for when you camp.

Go to their website, scroll down and click on camping. Has links to pricing and reservations and everything you need. It's a standard campsite. Prices range depending on season. https://parks.state.wa.us/578/Saltwater

Yep, can't camp right now. Not sure the reason, but the camping area was of limits and not getting used as of mid April.

I don't now

25 to 35 dollars a day, but camping is closed for the year.💩

Yep, more fun when the tide is out.💩

It's typically about 6 feet is where the visibility clears up throughout the Puget Sound

No dog area persay but you can walk your dog if you have it on a leash...hope that helped..??

Not sure about cling.....camping is May 15th i believe

Why is it closed

I think its closed

Dash Point State Park is open year round and has RV sites with ultities unlike Saltwater.

Yes

yes. we brought are 3 little dogs and most people had pets.
